Opinion by Rachel Julius Photos by Darren Greiving

As summer approaches, students begin
the search for jobs that will help them earn a little
extra spending money for the next school year.

Look no further. Here is your guide to
finding the perfect job and a list of jobs to stay
away from.

Some of the best summertime jobs to
have range from mowing lawns, to baby-sitting, to
fast food, to waiter/waitress, to pizza delivery, to
house cleaning, to salesperson, to lifeguard, to
camp counselor and to car washing.

*/l*lk4<a

The not-so-fun jobs include, service station
attendant, grocery bagger, telemarketer, toy store
worker and bus boy/girl.

From the best to the worst jobs, there are
some of those in-between jobs, otherwise known as
odd jobs. Some odd jobs include egg picker on a farm,
Christmas tree trimmer, skating rink DJ, pet-sitter,
water boy/girl for an athletic team and, last but not
least, the number/letter announcer for bingo.

When applying for a job, don't limit yourself to looking for
one job at a time, but go for several. Put your application
in at several places. If two call back you always have the
option to pick the better of the two.

By having a job, you have many advantages.
Money. Many opportunities arise to meet new friends
and possibly future date prospects. The number one
advantage would be gaining a lifetime experience.

You may be asking, "Where do I start?" The
best place would be the classifieds in the newspaper.

The Grizzly

Your best bet, the Sunday paper. Or you may also drive around town
looking for signs that say, "Now Hiring." But if you don't go for either of the
above, get out your handy phone book (you know the big book you use as
a coaster) and start calling places.

Although most jobs pay very little, it gives students a boost in their
financial standing. Many students work more hours during the summer than
the fall to earn that little extra that will help them out during the school year.

If you are serious about looking for a job that will help you out in
your career, web sites such as Monster.com can be very helpful. It gives
you the chance to search for jobs in the local area that you are interested in
and it gives
you a chance
to fill out
resumes and
submit them to
the companies
of your choice.
You are also
able to set up
a personal
account to access
any job

applications that
come your way.

When you go in for the application, have a smile on your face and
dress nice. If you have to fill out the application at the place of employment,
make sure you have the names, phone numbers and addresses of the
people you wish to use for references. Once the application has been filled
out, be prepared to be called back for an interview. When you are called
back for the interview be sure to dress nice, smile, look alert, listen well and
make eye contact. By following the above, you are almost guaranteed a
job.

Happy job hunting.

Looking for a job? Look no further. Most employers use
their signs to advertise employment opportunities. So while
you're traveling down the road, pay attention to what some
might have on their marquee. The newspaper is also a
good place to look. If all else fails, starting calling places
and ask if they are hiring.
